Irish footballer in coma after San Francisco clash
---------------------------------------
After McGovern went down during the game, so far two witnesses, an umpire and a teammate have reported that the player who hit him stood over McGovern for a brief period after. It has also been reported that he taunted, “you won’t get up after that.”

Ulster San Francisco club chairman Joe Duffy noted that McGovern “was having spasms and he was not conscious so we phoned 911 immediately.”

The San Francisco police have launched an investigation into the accident. They’re calling for anyone with knowledge as to why McGovern, who has been called by his home football club an “exceptionally talented footballer” might have been targeted, to step forward.
